This historic edition sees the opening of the new ADI Design Museum spaces to the public for the first time ever in a newly christened Milan square proudly bearing the name of the Compasso d’Oro.

For the first time in history, the award ceremony of the most important Italian design recognition will be held in a venue dedicated exclusively to the Compasso d'Oro. Also for the first time, the general public will be able to visit the exhibition in the new spaces of the ADI Design Museum which will open in December 2020.

This creation of a brand new reference point for design has been underlined by the new name given to the square in front of the museum entrance which was officially named the Piazza del Compasso d'Oro by Filippo Del Corno, Milan City Council spokesman for culture on the same day as the award ceremony.
